[img src="/storage/emulated/0/Download/WhatsApp-5_0.jpeg"][br][br]WhatsApp is arguably one of the most popular social messaging apps in the world. It helps nearly 1.5 billion people across the globe share their stories, their dreams, their concerns, their achievements and their emotions. [br][br]Needless to say that, in a world connected with Internet, the Facebook-owned social messaging app has endless use-cases today.[br][br]But did you know that WhatsApp can be used as a one-stop destination for storing your personal details right from your photos and snapshots from a book that you recently read, to the links to news articles that you want to read or documentaries that you want to watch to even random thoughts or ideas that you think can make a difference at work.[br][br]Using WhatsApp as a notes app sounds bizarre. After all we have Google Keep in Android smartphones and desktops and Notes on iPhones and iPad for that. But a WhatsApp feature, sitting right in front us, allows us to do all of that i.e. keep all the information in one place without the hassle of downloading a separate app.[br][br]And the feature, as the Twitter user Vinay Kesari, demonstrates is Groups.[br][br]WhatsApp groups are aimed at bringing people together on a single platform and space. But they can also be used for keeping notes. Here's how:[br][br]- Create a new group with one person on board (any friend or family).[br]- Now remove the other person from your group.[br]- This will give you a group with only yourself as the member.[br]- Once you do so, you can dump any information - links, notes, images or videos in that group.[br][br]Since no one is in the group, no one else can view its contents. So, all your data is safe and well within your reach.[br][br]On the flipside, the details that you saved in this group are not organised. So if you like to organise things, this trick would probably irritate you as you would not be able to classify all your data the way you like it.[br][br]Source:https://www.indiatoday.in/technology/tech-tips/story/here-is-how-to-whatsapp-as-notes-app-to-record-your-thoughts-save-photos-and-store-links-1527413-2019-05-17[br]
